Mr Mark Simmons is no doubt an exceptionally highly skilled specialist ENT/Plastic surgeon with years of expertise, extensive training and passion backing this (literally a magician of nasal related surgeries!). With a background of historic nasal trauma and a prior unsuccessful septoplasty; I was left with severe nasal breathing difficulties plus some adverse cosmesis. Therefore facing a complex revision surgery to attempt to correct these. This septorhinoplasty surgery was recently carried out by Mr Simmons. Even at this early stage of my recovery all I can say is WOW; I never expected it possible to obtain such fantastic breathing results. My sense of smell and sleeping is also greatly improved as a result. When considering the nature of this surgery; naturally one of my hold ups was in relation to leaving adverse aesthetics/totally changing my appearance as a result of extensive surgical intervention. Mr Simmons couldn't of been more reassuring and most importantly, forthcoming and clear in relation to the possible complications upon all consultations. To my delight as swelling as subsided my nose still resembles my nose and as in fact been left neater than prior to surgery. Which in turn as also left me more confident with the appearance of my nose; plus happier with the overall outcome. I would also add that given the level of surgical involvement this entailed; I found the pain and initial recovery period to be less severe than I anticipated; which only adds to the long list of positives I can vouch for of Mr Simmons. The only constructive feedback I could provide would be in relation to the ENT team who support Mr Simmons at Manor Hospital Walsall. This is as a result of the Dr who I saw when attending to have my sutures removed; leaving one in by error. Which led to myself having to reattend a few days later once I had noticed this. By no means should this have any reflection on the fantastic care provided by Mr Simmons as an individual; but I mention it as I felt it was such a shame that this kind of situation could jeopdise another patients otherwise exceptionally high overall experience when being under the care of Mr Simmons. This has been a positive life changing event for me; of which I couldn't thank or recommend Mr Simmons enough. For anyone with nasal breathing, aesthetic or combined issues of this nature I would urge you to seek contact with Mr Simmons.
